Dogs visit Grizzlies for Game 2 tonight looking for split

The Bulldogs enter tonight's Game 2 down 1-0 in the Best-of-Seven Series looking to return home with a split after a 3-0 loss last night in Game 1.

After a feeling out process early in the game the Bulldogs spent the better part of the remainder of the contest chasing the puck and appearing a step behind. They weren't able to generate enough in the way of a sustained attack, and while they were able to play hard and keep it close despite a constant parade to the penalty box, the Grizzlies got all the insurance they needed late in the second to take a 2-0 lead. While there was certainly positives to take out of last night's game, at this time of year nothing matters but the end result.

As the old adage goes, a series doesn't begin until a team loses at home, so lets hope the series begins tonight. The Bulldogs will need to increase their pace of play and their moving of the puck, to find a way to dictate the play.
